Ready for work and nowhere to go

They actually did it. Threw hundreds of thousands of people out of work to make sure millions of people won't get healthcare. I just went from having a big bonus and all my leave planned out through the end of the year to being out of work -- it's not just the Government that shuts when the Government shuts in this company town.

This current temper tantrum has thrown me so far out of sympathy with even moderate GOPers, I'm halfway tempted to declare as a Democrat just to swell their numbers by one.


(for those not aware of my sitch: I'm a liberal but hate political parties as basic entities, since they're machines that work to feed themselves, not us)

Sympathies on the situation.

I saw a great comment online: ”Boehner's under so much heat and pressure, I'm surprised he hasn't turned into a diamond."

The GOP wanted the tea party to keep a majority, and they've done nothing but hurt the GOP since.
